The Radfords set to reveal name of their 22nd baby on YouTube

Britain's biggest family will reveal the name of their baby number 22 tomorrow on YouTube.

The family have announced it today with a Facebook comment, which reads: "Just to let you all know the baby’s name reveal will be up in the morning, Noel’s editing it today."

The Radfords welcomed their new daughter this month and broke the news on their Facebook page - with friends and followers offering their congratulations on social media.

Sue Radford, 45, and husband Noel, 49, said they were "panicking" the days before their daughter was born as they had no name for her.

Speaking on the family YouTube channel, Noel said: "We’re getting a bit desperate now, she could be here any day and there’s still no name for the poor little thing."

Mum Sue described her latest delivery the "strangest birth yet" since it happened during the coronavirus pandemic.

She told The Sun :  "I was more scared than I had ever been going into hospital with everything going on with the virus.

"I was so worried that Noel wouldn’t be allowed to stay with me.

"We have all been isolating and it seemed wrong to leave our safe bubble to go to a hospital, but when I got there I felt safe straight away."

Sue, who has spent more than 800 weeks of her life pregnant, has sworn this will be her last baby — but has said the same in the past.

Sue, who fell pregnant with her first child at age 13, regularly updates followers with news on the family's YouTube channel.

Today, the Radfords shared photos of the family with an Easter egg for every single child - adding tomorrow they will announce the name of their little girl.

Many excited followers commented, with one saying: "Yay! Can’t wait I bet there’s another egg with a name on hidden away from our view!"

Another person wrote: "Quarantine must be fun in your house with so many kids to homeschool."

A Facebook user added: "Happy Easter! I bet I’m not the only one looking to see if baby’s name was on an egg!"
